  +1 to github. Yes you can use git for free if you know how to set it up, but for $12/month in your case ($7 in mine), I just like the convenience of having someone else continually worry and work on all that stuff. It's also important to think like an entrepreneur. Focus on what you are good at, delegate everything else to people good at those things. Git specifically: I knew absolutely nothing about version control when I started looking into it. (about a month ago). My project will soon be open source so i know I needed to start thinking in terms of version control. I picked git over svn very simply because git was made by Linus. Git seems (to me) to have a better quality following as of now. I like being in the best company (it's bound to rub off). This tutorial was/is very helpful to me: http://hoth.entp.com/output/git_for_designers.html http://hoth.entp.com/output/git_for_designers.html I am still a huge beginner when it comes to git, but I find the core commands mentioned in the tutorial to be simple and very effective. Best of luck.

    Any hacker ought to be able to set up git, it's so simple. I might consider recommending github if someone doesn't have a server somewhere, but aside from that, it's just too simple to set up. svn isn't really that much harder.
